* Check if the page selection algorithm is working well
* Divide swappability of objects by refcount
* Use multiple open FDs against the VM file, one for thread.
-* it should be possible to give the vm-max-memory option in megabyte, gigabyte, ..., just using 2GB, 100MB, and so forth.
-* Try to understand what can be moved into I/O threads that currently is instead handled by the main thread. For instance swapping file table scannig to find contiguous page could be a potential candidate (but I'm not convinced it's a good idea, better to improve the algorithm, for instance double the fast forward at every step?).
-* Possibly decrRefCount() against swapped objects can be moved into I/O threads, as it's a slow operation against million elements list, and in general consumes CPU time that can be consumed by other threads (and cores).
-* EXISTS should avoid loading the object if possible without too make the code too specialized.
+* EXISTS should avoid loading the object if possible without making the code too specialized.
* vm-min-age <seconds> option
* Make sure objects loaded from the VM are specially encoded when possible.
* Check what happens performance-wise if instead to create threads again and again the same threads are reused forever. Note: this requires a way to disable this clients in the child, but waiting for empty new jobs queue can be enough.
* Don't save empty lists / sets / zsets on disk with snapshotting.
* Remove keys when a list / set / zset reaches length of 0.
* An option to exec a command slave-side if the master connection is lost: even cooler: if the script returns "0" the slave elects itself as master, otherwise continue trying to reconnect.
+* PING the master from time to time to check if it's gone.
